    S8, EP 6: Darren Dilieto and His Journey Creating Hireillo

    Send us a text What happens when an illustrator discovers they're awesome at finding clients for other illustrators? For Darren Dilieto, it sparked a 20-year journey building Hireillo, a revolutionary platform connecting illustrators with clients while challenging industry norms. Darren's story begins in the early 2000s before social media existed, when he created a popular blog called The Little Chimp Society as a central hub for illustrators. Recognizing his talent for networking and connecting artists with opportunities, he transformed this foundation into a membership-based community that offers a refreshing alternative to traditional agencies taking 30% of artists' earnings.
